My NTS expires in 30 days and I started studying for FAR this morning.  I have no choice but to dedicate 4 hrs per day M-F and 8 hours on S & S until test day.

I have been out of school for over 16 years so most of this stuff will be like new to me.

I am married with a Spouse and kids and I work 55+ hours per week.

Has anyone had any success passing FAR with so little time to study?

Should I focus most of my time on multiple choice?

speaking from experience on the wife front, let her know in advance what the plan is and your goals are (after all, it's your last exam, she should know the game plan by now).  If you can get her on board with the schedule you describe above, then you can do this in 30 days.

Well, I haven't passed yet, but I'd rather study in a short period of time than to drag it out.  I tend to get bored if I drag it out too long.  I think you can do it if you stay dedicated.

Good luck.

rch & Hopeful thanks for the feedback.  Good luck to both of you through the rest of your journey.  We will all be CPA's someday soon!!
